The way this film absolutely ruined me because I could not stop thinking of the parallels with my YA book 😭

This is what US media would call “low intensity” since it’s a Palestinian family being eliminated

my heart is broken, these are babies and children. i’m so tired of this being seen as normal and acceptable simply because we are palestinians.
